Hi,

I'm developing an ATL library to wrap another LIB with VC6.

The includes comprehends:

#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#include <boost/asio/serial_port.hpp>
#include <boost/thread.hpp>
#include <boost/signals2/signal.hpp>
#include <boost/scoped_ptr.hpp>
#include <boost/enable_shared_from_this.hpp>

When I compile I get these errors:

Could someone give me some feedback?
I need VC6 because its the only environment I can use to develop an ATL
project!

Thanks in advance!
